                                According to a 2022 study published in *The Journal of Nutrition*, a higher intake of lean, unprocessed red meat did not elevate inflammatory markers like C-reactive protein. So, **which meat is not inflammatory?** The answer is more nuanced than you might think and depends heavily on the type, quality, and preparation method.
